The Year of the Rapture Novel Coming Soon

Yesterday, I found out that the closed cases on my copyright.gov profile were both approved by the Library of Congress. I was so excited. I had been waiting to publish my book and songs because I never received a letter in the mail saying they had been registered and copyrighted. However, today I worked on editing my second book, called The Year of the Rapture. I also attempted to publish it on Kindle as an ebook. I will know in about 72 hours if it was published or if I need to re-upload it with the newest Kindle software. They actually have really nice software that made my book look much more professional. I added a copyright page, acknowledgement page, and front and back pages that were empty. I was unable to upload a good photo since the program kept turning my photos 90 degrees to the side no matter what I tried. In the end, I did not have a photo in the second book, but I did upload new photos on my Amazon author webpage. 

In other news, I passed General Physics and the Laboratory at ECU with an A- and an A, respectively. I genuinely believe I saw the promised land as I completed these courses. I saw how things could be different if I passed this course because it made it much more likely that I would graduate as a construction management major. These courses were so difficult that I was not sure if I needed to take them a second time to pass, but I did come to realize there was a way to pass if even if you needed a second chance. I was pushed to the end of myself and learned so much detailed information about how the physical universe works. I solved challenging physics problems. I applied all the knowledge from third grade about hundreds and thousandths places to precalculus-trig at the college level. There were many courses that led me to believe I could problem-solve before taking this course. While at Pitt Community College, I completed Accounting I and II, Microeconomics, geology and precalculus-trig. By the end of Accounting II and my associate's degree, I was solving problems without much help from a tutor. Then, while in General Physics, I did everything without consulting a tutor so that there would be no debate about me getting too much help. 

Prospects are looking good for construction managers in North Carolina over the next ten years. People will always need construction managers and general contractors to build their new apartments, houses and commercial buildings. So, I celebrated when I found out I passed this class. It was so easy to fail the entire time that I held my breath until I received my final grades. I am so thankful to God that I do not need to use the pass/fail option this semester to take the course again. I know that classes like physics are so difficult like those in a medical school program. Although medical students are brilliant, it is possible for them to fail their exam the first time they take it. That is how hard their courses are, and they take a lot of physics. They are recommending that more doctors earn bachelors degrees in physics since it is the foundation of all sciences. 

Since ending the fall semester, I have been doing some light reading of a book by Lisa Bevere. I am almost finished with Girls with Swords. I have really been engaged because I enjoy watching fencing during the Olympics every four years, and she explains fencing techniques on a practical level. I had had a Starbucks Peppermint Mocha Frappachino, watched the National Dog Show on NBC after Macy's Thanksgiving Parade, and enjoyed a Frisco Thickburger from Hardee's for the first time in several months. I am praying to get registered for the classes I need to stay on track for graduation and get things settled and books reserved for the Spring 2021 semester at ECU. These have been some of the highlights of my winter vacation. 

During my break from Blogger, I learned from Thomas Horn on Skywatch TV him taking fermented turmeric curcumin for six months reversed his diabetes. It is possible to look like you did in your late thirties well into your sixties since most aging is caused by a simple vitamin deficiency. This can be reversed by taking collagen supplements since it makes up most of your bones (90%) and adds elasticity to your skin, the largest organ of your body. I am seeing more and more Hollywood stars that defy aging like Pharrell and Nicole Kidman. Maybe this is their secret. So, I started a turmeric curcumin regimen to help me reverse an prediabetes I may have had. I have eated wheat bread sandwiches daily for many months betweeen 2019 and 2020. I filed my FAFSA and actually worked for over a year up until the COVID-19 pandemic. So, that felt good to not be unemployed during 2019. 

I do not believe NASA about the Apophis asteroid that is approaching earth. Since it is going to fly closer than the satellites, I do not believe they can conclude that it will pass safely by earth in 2029 or that they know the exact location or day it will come here. It seems to be unpredictably changing position and velocity and is so far away that it is impossible to know where it will go with that much precision. They changed their initial story from 2004 that predicted it would hit the earth in 2029. Also, since it is passing closer than the satellites, won't it be pulled down by earth's gravity? There is a reason why the satellites need to be the distance they are from the earth to remain in orbit. So, that is what I think about that.
